Hello all,

as you may have known, I have a suzuki vitara 1jz swapped and I've been having problems with clutch slips mostly on a stock Mark II JZX90 heavy duty clutch from the toyota factory, I bought the whole kit excluding the flywheel of course, it seems to slip a lot on clutch kicks a lot and I really do need it since the car is made for offroad and there's no 4wd on a W58 transmission which makes clutch kicks vitally important.

I've asked here and there, I'm not looking for any Exedy or ACT or any expensive clutch kit, the only answer or suggestion I got up with is the Thailand's RDP racing clutch, any ideas on this clutch or on any really cheap clutch that would do me the favor of not slipping on clutch kicks or even on hard shifting?

Thank you in advance,
Yamajee.

I don't think you'll be able to find a W58 clutch for less than $400 USD that will hold that amount of power (I'm assuming about 300hp on a stock 1JZ).

Actually I've heard that the RDP racing clutch is able to handle lots of power, since it's not rubber and is a 6 puck clutch and lots of people with even single turbo setups are quite relaxed with the clutch so I might for it or for an exedy clutch kit. Thanks for the reply guys!
